And I'm willing to bet that Scooter didn't really get the joke either. I had to get my mother, who did get it, to explain it to me.

In the skit, Fozzie gave his name as Mike Oznowizcky (sp). That is a Polish name.
The skit was referring not to a tall wooden tower for phone lines, but to someone from Warsaw or Krakow. Does that help?

On a different subject, if I had a dream like the one Sara had, I'd wake up with a face the color of Red's hair and sweater...and it'd stay that way for a week.

Haha, yeah. Just another one of those really bad jokes we've come to expect... and know and love.

Oh, gosh, thank you Muppet Newsgirl. I totally get it now. Now I can sleep. Gosh, I can't believe I didn't see that.

Isn't Oznowizcky Frank Oz's real last name?

No, but close. Oznowicz, if I remember correctly.

I think that's right. I've been having a lot of bad dreams lately, and I'm usually much happier after I wake up.

I feel bad doing this to ya'll. >> Another little dream. This time Richard was hugging me gently, stroking my hair, and telling me I'd be alright. I wondered why I was crying so hard, and I managed to look over his shoulder....and apperently I was in a really bad car wreck. I coughed a few times, apperently blood came out of my mouth, and I woke up gasping and choking in real life then. My head was ringing hard, and I couldn't hear for a short while.

I occasionally have episodes of what's called Exploding Head Syndrome. It is not fun at all. I more often have the bright flashes of light, rather then the explosions. X_X Although the dream itself didn't do it, it happened right after I saw the car wreck. The "explosion", caused me to startle myself out of a nice night of sleep.

Oh gosh. I'm so, so, so sorry Sara. Exploding Head Syndrome? Such an odd name for such an awful syndrome.

But it sounds like...Richard knew you were about to have it, and told you that you'd be all right. *Shudder* Oh that's so weird, he's like contacting you from beyond the grave.

That's a really interesting way to look at the dream. I think it's really cool... and sweet. He really seems to be looking out for you, Sara. :smile:

I'm also sorry you experience Exploding Head Syndrome, Sara. I hope it doesn't happen to you too often.

[Edit'd] Not that I know of. Some people used medicine, but for me it's so infrequent, I just don't bother and I live with it.

Well, it's because the head feels like it's exploding. Like a warhead is going off inside of your head. I don't get the explosions very often, just the very bright light, and it really hurts. Makes me think that a light has flicked on, when it really hasn't.

I hope you guys have great Richard influenced dreams tonight!
